How often do you have peole sign up for hubpages through your link (tracker/referral)?
Haven't had anyone use my link to sign up yet, but still cultivating traffic. Any tips?
I have never had anyone sign up through my referral link. As far as I know there is only one person on HubPages here because of me. Wish I could help you out with some tips but I have had no luck so far. Hopefully someone will answer your question with tips.
I place my referral link only for one week with 51 views but no sign up ...yet I hope that next month will be better.
It happens, but not too often. Guess I ought to check that out. I've not checked my tracker in ages. For a while I got to where I never shared a link of mine, yours, or anyone else's unless I used the tracker. . . . .but now I'm more convinced that my time is better spent worrying about other things.
One of the more important things that is overlooked, in my amateur opinion, is developing authority within a niche. I've got a dozen niche's going, and I should be concentrating on just a few niche topics, and not so many - I've effectively prevented myself from developing Google and reader "authority" within some niches by writing in so many different ones.
I have around 15,000 views, and one sign up who did nothing. So, I have no idea how to do that.
I have about 183 views to the referral link and no sign ups yet. I am hoping to get one some day, but I am not going to rely on their articles to make me money. I enjoy doing the work and seeing the outcome of the work.
So far I have had about 300 clicks on my sign up link. I have had 2 people join Hubpages, but neither of them have published a hub to this point. (If you are one, please start writing! j/k)
I have about 700 clicks and 1 sign up. They haven't published anything yet and its been months, so its not looking good

I understand that if someone visits one of my hubs and I have a link to where they can sign up and start writing that I'll get paid for it too.My question is how do I create this link? I've read the FAQ and I'm still soooo confused it isn't even funny.

Specifically -- how do we invite prospective hubbers to sign up (to our credit, if possible). Is there some kind of clicker or button or other sign up tool that credits us as a referral? I thought there was...

I've had a few people sign up under my trackers when I send out emails of my hubs, but I was wondering what some of the rest of you have done as far as setting up a more unique way to have friends and family sign up here at hubpages? For some strange reason I don't think my profile link for sign...

How do I create the sign up referral tracker on my profile?I've been reading around in vain, Hubs & the forums, I've pretty much learned how to add the referrals on hubs and backlinking. Though I cant figure out how to get the referral working for my profile page to get a new user to sign...

Like referrals.1. Why insert an _referralcode into the URL. Couldn't you come up with a dynamic insertion solution? If an insertion was required, what's wrong with appending it at the end of the URL as in ?referrer=xyz? or would that make it too easy for hubbers?2. Why do pages like the Referrals...
